The Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-TX10 is a versatile camera which you can use underwater or used for a night on the town. This digital camera is slim enough to fit in your pocket or handbag but has got the forward-thinking design of Sony. Because of its airtight style and design, it’s dust proof, is water-resistant to a depth of 16 feet 10 inches, and can tolerate falls up to 5 feet 9 inches. This camera is tough enough for extreme weather temperature ranges from 14 degrees to 104 degrees.

You have to do some thorough research when considering this camera, from the spec information from the manufacturer to people’s reviews on popular online retailers. Make sure you read carefully and have a good understanding of what sort of product you want to buy. You still will not know until you use the digital camera for yourself, if it will meet your requirements. On paper, this could seem like a perfect camera for using outside and underwater. Nonetheless, for some reviewers, the digital camera did not live up to the media hype. Even though it is a little point and shoot camera, it does take very good pictures and videos. To be the ideal outdoor digital camera, it seems to lack a few essential practical things.

Its compact design makes this camera great for taking it to the restaurant or taking it to the beach. The screen display is very clear and has a slide cover to protect the lens. You can take awesome images with the camera’s 25 mm wide-angle lens. The videos it records are, as opposed to most point and shoot cameras, 1080i videos at 60 fps, instead of 30 fps. On a big flat screen TV, the video images look almost life like. It seems to have a very reliable waterproofing, which is appealing.

But some of the downsides for a few people include the sluggish startup time. By the time you start to take your videos, it’s going to take 5 to 7 seconds, before it will begin taking the movie. This could be an irritation for you if you need to take pictures rather quickly. Even though the digital camera is ostensibly tough and solidly built, the camera can still get broken or be scuffed easily. Avoid inserting the device in your pocket with your keys since the keys could scuff the screen. The battery life is not great and it does not come with a separate charger, but has to be plugged in to charge.

You’ll find that the Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-TX10 16.2 MP Waterproof Digital Still camera is smartly designed but not as rugged as you would expect. Despite the fact that the digital camera takes excellent pics and videos, if you prefer a truly great outdoor digital camera then you may need to go looking someplace else.
